Inclusion Criteria

•Age = 18 years
•Able to provide written informed consent in accordance with federal, local, and institutional guidelines
•newly diagnosed, symptomatic multiple myeloma
•Transplant-ineligibility (age > 65 years or patients not eligible due to comorbidities determined by investigator or patients not willing to undergo ASCT on personal preference)
•Measurable disease, as defined by one or more of the following (assessed within 21 days prior to randomization):
oSerum M-protein = 0.5 g/dL, or
oUrine M-protein = 200 mg/24 hours, or
oIn subjects without detectable serum or urine M-protein, serum-free light chain (SFLC) > 100 mg/L (involved light chain) and an abnormal ?/? ratio
•No prior treatment for multiple myeloma
•Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0-1
•Patients at cardiac risk (NYHA >II or pre-existing coronary heart disease or any other relevant cardiac complication) should be scheduled for a baseline ECHO and can only be included if the LVEF is =40%); independent of cardiac risk ECG has to be done for inclusion of Asian patients and patients > 75 years of age
•Adequate organ and bone marrow function within the 21 days prior to randomization defined by:
oBilirubin < 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) < 3 times the ULN
oabsolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1000/mm3 (growth factor support for max 3 days allowed to achieve this value)
oHemoglobin = 7.0 g/dL (Use of erythropoietic stimulating factors and red blood cell [RBC] transfusion per institutional guidelines is allowed, however the most recent RBC transfusion may not have been done within 7 days prior to obtaining screening hemoglobin.)
oPlatelet count = 30,000/mm3
•Calculated or measured creatinine clearance (CrCl) of > 30 mL/min. Calculation should be based on the Cockcroft and Gault formula: [(140 – Age) · Mass (kg) / (72 · Creatinine mg/dL)]; multiply result by 0.85 if female
•Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a confirmed negative serum pregnancy test within the 21 days prior to randomization
•Females of childbearing potential and male subjects who are sexually active with FCBP must agree to use effective concomitant method(s) of contraception during the study and for 30 days (women) and 90 days (men) following the last study drug treatment administration.

oSimilar condition with an expectation of > 95% five-year disease-free survival
•History of or current amyloidosis
•Immunotherapy within the 21 days prior to randomization
•Glucocorticoid therapy within the 14 days prior to randomization that exceeds accumulative dose of 160 mg dexamethasone or 1000 mg prednisone
•Extended field radio therapy (more than 3 fields) within the 21 days prior to randomization
•Known history of allergy to Carfilzomib, Captisol (a cyclodextrin derivative used to solubilize carfilzomib) or any other component of formulation
•Contraindication to dexamethasone, thalidomide or lenalidomide or any of the required concomitant drugs or supportive treatments, including hypersensitivity to antiviral drugs
•Active congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class III or IV), symptomatic ischemia, conduction abnormalities uncontrolled by conventional intervention, acute diffuse infiltrative pulmonary disease, pericardial disease, or myocardial infarction within 4 months prior to enrollment
•Active infection within the 14 days prior to randomization requiring systemic antibiotics and/or antiviral therapy
•Pleural effusions requiring thoracentesis within the 14 days prior to randomization
